TEEP 2016, application closed yesterday, 2nd March. I kind of like this parts from the email message that was sent by the TEEP Team...

To the successful applicants the message said:

"...In the meantime, we ask that you keep your head up and progress with your business. Entrepreneurs wait for no one – continue conducting research, fine-tuning your business, gathering funds, shadowing leaders in your field, and generally moving forward. It is time to change Africa!"


And to those that couldn't submit their forms for whatever reason, it said:

...we encourage you to stand strong as you consider other means of funding, mentoring and training – Entrepreneurs always have a plan B!""

According to the message, more than 45000 applications was received from all over Africa, out of which, 1000 businesses and entrepreneurs will be selected and "empowered". The successful applicants "will be contacted and announced on 22 March, 2016"
